Mahalo to all the fabulous villagers for the past four days. We're sad to see everything end today. But you can still squeeze in some fun at The Mai-Kai:

Skinny Jimmy & the Stingrays play at noon, and the documentary film "Plastic Paradise" is shown at 1:30 p.m. Following the film, The Mai-Kai will host an after-party with happy hour from 3 to 7, two more sets from the band plus special "lost cocktails" that haven't been served in decades.

I especially want to shout out to the volunteers who helped. Many, MANY of them worked lots more hours than their shifts indicated, pinch-hit in multiple areas and without them nothing would have gone nearly as smoothly as it did. So MAHALO and a half.

Thanks also to the Hukilau Crew (Christie "Tiki Kiliki" White, Stacie "Heelgrinder" Herndon, Jim "Hurricane" Hayward and Brian Crum) for being the best to work with.

On behalf of The Hula Girls, I just wanted to say how much fun we had playing for you all! You couldn't have been a better crowd... and to have the opportunity to play in the Mai Kai?? What an honor and a what a blast!

A giant thanks to Christie for bringing us all of the way over to the Hukilau!! We hope to do it again soon!

Wow, what a sensational Hukilau! Deepest gratitude to everybody's hard work staging this sensational event.
Tristan filmed my swim Friday & I would love to share it with you. For those of you watching from the Wreck Bar, the video video shows a unique view of the presentation. Ixtahuele's "Gardens of Mu" is perfect as the background music.
